Clearing an Individual Receipt in a Deposit

If you set a deposit’s status to Reconcile By Deposit Detail on the Reconcile Statements screen, you can reconcile individual receipts in the deposit.

These instructions assume you are in the process of reconciling a bank account, and you have entered all the required information on the Summary tab of the Reconcile Statements screen. For more information, see Reconciling a Bank Account.

  1. On the Reconciliation tab, select a deposit line.
  2. In the Reconciliation Status field, specify Reconcile By Deposit Detail.
  3. In the Deposits column, click the Edit button.

    The Deposit Details screen appears, and lists all the receipts in the selected deposit. For more information, see Bank Deposit Details Screen.

    Note: Initially, all receipts have a reconciliation status of Outstanding.

      When you click outside of the Reconciliation Status field, other fields for the receipt are automatically updated, as follows:

    3. In the Cleared Amount field in the Deposit section (at the top of the screen), enter the total amount of all cleared receipts.
